H/B on a DOPPLER??

So My doctor scheduled my appt for Jan 25 and ill be 11 weeks 3 days!! Im not sure if she does U/S (ultrasound) that early with DS (dear son) i didnt start seeing this dr until 18 weeks...So using those doppler things is the H/B able to be heard that far along?? I want to leave that appt at least being able to hear my bean..!

Ok not to burst a bubble, but it IS possible not to hear it until 12-13 weeks. Just HAVE to put it out there because if you didn't hear it it wouldn't mean anything. That bring said, yes you will most likely be able to hear it!

I purchased one for $30 on Amazon. It has the screen that shows the heart rate and an indicator (flashing triangle) that it is the baby's heart beat (versus your own). I have been eagerly waiting to hear it. I tried a couple days ago at 7w2d didn't hear anything ... hopefully within the next few weeks I can hear something as I don't have my next appointment until January 21, I will be approximately 11 weeks then.
